A superior quality, British made deep horizontal privacy lock providing keyless locking of bathroom or toilet doors. The lock has traditional case dimensions similar to many older patterns so it can normally be used as a direct replacement with little or no additional joinery work or making good required. Knobs are positioned away from the door edge to avoid rapping knuckles against the frame and the medium sprung, two-way action is particularly suitable for heavier door knobs and ring handles. This version will position the centre of the door knob 102mm from the door edge. Incorporating a heavy duty solid brass latchbolt for superior performance this lock is an excellent choice for both high quality residential and heavy use commercial applications and can be used with any bathroom thumbturn having a 5mm square spindle.
